Both have their pros and cons.  Surprised by the fuel economy.

There were vehicles in that clip?  I just noticed the HAWT beefy presenter...

I'd rather be car-poor than house-poor...

He is too short for you.  Looks to be about 5'2"?  ;D

The back seat is a worry in the Maverick. That short little gut barely fit his legs in the back..

Not to worry, you can check the TFL review where Zach sits on the back and he has plenty of room…- he is 6’2

A 6'2 guy can set the seat for his driving position and sit in the back seat without his knees jammed in the seat? Impressive.

Nah he has the drivers seat moved up. Will have to give it the old KTM test after this covid thing blows over.

I am of the opposite view. To me at least the Ford looks more like a truck.

Still a debate on whether these are trucks.

😂

Just you debating that .

They are based on SUV’s so they should be in that section. A bit closer than calling them cars.

What would you call a Ridgeline?

Same here!! I’ve seen a few Mavericks and one Santa Cruz so far, me thinks these are selling like hot cakes.

Honestly if Ford or Hyundai dumped a PHEV AWD powertrain in one of these, I’d skip my Lightning reservation and get one…it’s all the truck I need!

Theres a Hyundai dealer right beside the dealer I picked the Ridgeline from, saw a Santa Cruz, goofy looking thing. Its not just the nameplate, just a weird looking thing like the H3 truck or the explorer sport track.
